Maya Naomi - gorgeous. I love both names and I think they go nicely together. This is my preferred spelling of Maya.
Maya Diamante - Diamante seems cheap and tacky. I think Maya Naomi is a million times prettier.
Amelia Mabel - Gorgeous, love it! Mabel Amelia would be even better though!
Kiran Sunil - I'm not keen on Kiran. I predict that people would spell/pronounce it like Kieran which is much more popular. Sunil is nice.
Dylan Asher - A bit trendy and bland, but OK.

Dylan Asher - A bit trendy and bland, but OK.
Maya Naomi - I like both of these names separately, but they seem to run together as a set. Almost like a foreign greeting or something. For that lapse in flow, I give it a 7/10. It still maintains a hight score because Maya is a sweet and simple name that is spelled correctly, and Naomi is a beautiful classic that is bother under-used and under-appreciated imo.
Maya Diamante - Diamante is on our middle name list (as it is "diamond" in Tagalog... Spanish as well I am sure). I think it is bold as a middle, but would prefer to see something like Maya Esmeralda or Maya Kristal instead. That said, it flows better than your first option. I still give it a 7/10, but in this case the flow worked for it and the integrity of the two names on their own works against it.
Amelia Mabel - 9/10. I like this a lot. I am a sucker for the lovely Amelia and Mabel is one of those names that I find adorable on youngsters, but totally appropriate for adults. This flows well and is sweet. It loses a point because I would rather see Mabel Amelia, personal preference.
Kiran Sunil - Nice. 8/10. Both are strong names and the combined meaning of "blue sunbeams" is rather unique and pretty. I like it a lot. I especially like that it seems trendy and right for this generation, yet it is a standard Indian name. Good choices. Totally out of sync with the others on this list though.
Dylan Asher - This almost seems like a 90s name. I do like it... though I prefer Asher to Dylan and would likely switch the order up to Asher Dylan... but this works. I give it a 7/10 because Dylan is a bit weak, even if it is established but Asher is strong even though it is soft. And interesting juxtaposition.

Maya Naomi: Quite nice. Both names are lovely on their own. They're a bit of a mouthful together but not badly so.
Maya Diamante is a mouthful in a bad way, and Diamante seems tacky and porntastic. The combo sounds like somebody bragging on their jewelry.
Kiran Sunil doesn't do anything for me. Is Kiran a Hindi/Indian name, or a variation of Kieran? If the former I guess the combo is all right but not my style at all. If the latter, it's a mismatch.
Dylan Asher is okay. I like Dylan pretty well, but not Asher. They do go nicely together.

Maya Naomi, Amelia Mabel and Asher are all great names.
I like Maya Naomi very much. Good rhythm, unexpected combination, noticeable in a good way.
Diamante unfortunately doesn't work as a human name. As an English word, it suggests artificial gems - costume jewellery - and the hint of fake glitter is unpleasant on a person.
Amelia rose to its current popularity when people started looking for a substitute for the megapopular Emily. I don't expect it to last very long - it's a name that will date its owners. So, like Amy before it, its rise will be followed by a fall. Mabel is more popular now than it has been for a long time, but it hasn't made the big-time and would work well as a fn: Mabel Amelia would be very good.
Kiran and Sunil come from a tradition I'm not familiar with. They sound good together, but Kiran is too close to Kieran for comfort, so once again I'd prefer to see them reversed: Sunil Kiran.
Dylan is rapidly becoming less popular. Quite a nice name, but over the hill. Asher is OK as as underused biblical name, but I suspect it's underused because it shortens so easily to the drab and discouraging Ash. Fine as a mn, therefore, if you're really fond of it.
